Re: Problems with odbc-connection to informix-database

Thank You for your fast response!

root@debian-testwebserver:~# ldd /opt/IBM/informix/lib/cli/libifcli.so
         linux-gate.so.1 =>  (0xb7740000)
         libifgls.so => not found
         libifglx.so => not found
         libc.so.6 => /lib/i686/cmov/libc.so.6 (0xb746f000)
         libm.so.6 => /lib/i686/cmov/libm.so.6 (0xb7449000)
         libdl.so.2 => /lib/i686/cmov/libdl.so.2 (0xb7445000)
         libcrypt.so.1 => /lib/i686/cmov/libcrypt.so.1 (0xb7413000)
         libpthread.so.0 => /lib/i686/cmov/libpthread.so.0 (0xb73fa000)
         /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0xb7741000)

root@debian-testwebserver:~# locate libifgls.so
/opt/IBM/informix/lib/esql/libifgls.so
root@debian-testwebserver:~# locate libifglx.so
/opt/IBM/informix/lib/esql/libifglx.so

but my /etc/ld.so.conf says:

include /etc/ld.so.conf.d/*.conf
include $INFORMIXDIR/lib/cli/*
include $INFORMIXDIR/lib/esql/*
include $INFORMIXDIR/lib/*

Why are the libraries not found?



best regards

Michael Blum
